activists win legal battle over climate protest in geneva
In Geneva, three activists from Renovate Switzerland were acquitted after spraying UBS's facade orange to protest the bank's lack of building renovations, which they argue exacerbates climate issues. The court ruled their actions were protected under freedom of assembly, emphasizing the need for tolerance towards peaceful demonstrations, even if they disrupt daily life. The decision is seen as a significant advancement for climate jurisprudence in Switzerland.
